Hives in the Kitchen

Welcome! We are a homeschooling family in Texas- so we've never been normal by any standards- but with the addition of our third little one, we have entered into the overwhelming and really unfun world of food allergies. Our little girl is allergic to egg white, wheat, soy, dairy, peanuts, sesame seeds, bananas, avocados, pineapples, melons, tree nuts, coconuts, flax seeds, quinoa, and sunflower seeds. This is our life as we stave off starvation and try to maintain sanity.

Brown Sugar Baked Chicken

Ok, I get really sick of chicken sometimes, but I'm hungry, I need protein, and chicken seems safe. So here's a simple chicken recipe.

3 T brown sugar (the organic, non-GMO kind)
2 t chili powder
2 t orange zest (or a little more....)
1 t salt
4 chicken breasts

Combine in a ziploc and shake it up. Place on a cookie sheet lined with aluminum foil or in a baking dish coated with cooking spray. Bake at 450 for 20-25 minutes.

Voila! Simple and pretty good. My kids like it dipped in honey (as if it doesn't already have enough sugar).
